sumper's Wines and Teas.

Els wines were curious and valuable.
Nost Of them had been accumulated at
sales made by foreign ministers when
breaking up their households to return
from Washington to their own countries,
or at sales made by thoe whose knowl-
edge and taste had enabled them to have
the best. Among them were three bot
ties, each having hung on its neck in the
senator's handwriting the following:

reserved from the sale and sent to his in
valid sister, Mrs. Hastings, in California.
His teas he had accumulated somewhat
IN the same way. He would order
through his friends in the East India
trade the smallest possible original pack
cts Of kinds not known to commerce, the
difficulty Of getting which was far be-
yond their cost; and travelling friends in
the diplomatic service would send him
little packets Of the rare and strange teas
that they found abroad. At the famous
dinners he gave the joint high "jmmis-

s,irits of the Water.

The Russians believe that the Rusalkae,
q water spirits, are beautiful niaidens
Who allure passers-by, and il they catch
them tickle them to death in their crys-
cal halls below the waves. During one
week in the year they come to men for
clothes, and rags and threads are accord
ingIy hung on the trees for their benefit.
During that week, for fear Of offending
the Rusalkas and being punished by the
loss Of poultry or cattle, no one must
work or sew OF wash linen. When girls
are drowned they become Rusalkas and
the wives of the watery Vodyany, and
vhea snow melts into foods. or mill
dan are carried away by swollen tor
rent men know that it Is due to the
matrimonial revelry that always attends
the scek Grafton of marriage between a
mortal and spirit Of the waters.
This idea of possible relations between
water spirits and human beings seems a
very obvious corollary of the idea of hu-
manlike beings resident in the water.
The idea of their marrying mortals is at
least as reasonable as the idea Of their
drowning thew or tickling them to death.
And with the ii, a of such marriage it
would lie natural 20 connect the idea OF
some benefit to arc, ie therefrom 10 the
water spirit, as vel " of curious condi-
tions involved in the marriage contract.
Thus would arise such stories as those Of
Undine or Melusina.

An Electrical strstagsm.

/ When the electric telegraph was sgst
introduced into Chill, stratagem was
resorted to in order to guard the p,sts
and wires against damage on the pan of
the Araucanian Indians and maintain the
connection between the strongholds on
the frontier. There were at the time be-
tween forty and fifty captive indiana in
the Gillian camp. Gen. Pinto called
them together, and, pointing to the tele-
graph wires, he said: do you see those
wiresg' "Yes. general" "Very good.
I want you TO remember not to go near
nor touch them; for if you do your har ds
will be held and you will be unable to
get away" The Indians smiled incredu-
lously.
Then the general made them each In
succession take hold of the wires at both
nds Of an electric battery in full opera
ton. After which he exclaimed: II
command you to let go the wire!' II
can't; my hands are benumbed, " said the
Indian. The battery was then stopped
and the man released. Not long after
ward the general restored them to liberty,
giving them strict injunctions to keep the
secret, and not to betray il TO their coun.
trymen on any account. This had the
desired effect, for, as might be expected,
the experiment was related ''in the
strictest confidence" to every man of the
tribe, and the telegraph has ever since re-
mained unmolested.- Review.

The Electrical Typewriter.

And now finally as to the electrical
typewriter. A friend in the patent Office
at Washington writes to ask me to keep
cool. The device has been already in
vented and is now about half patented.
By the time this appears in print the
patent will be complete. The machine
will work at any distance over which q
wire can be placed. My correspondent
believes that it can be worked On the
other side of the ocean connected with
this side by the cable. This doubt, as
the current is SO weak either on account
of seasickness or other reasons by the
time it gets to the other side that all it is
able to do is to defect very small mir
ror so delicately poised as to be practi-
cally suspended in the air. Still If the
dynmograph, as they call it, will work
over ordinary land spaces it will be a
great invention. although, of course, it
will be nothing to the telephonosraph
shortly to be put forward by Mr.. Edison.

WGe pott-d and housed during the win

'0Dwer pots earthen clay is used Of a fine
Guality, which burns red. The smallest
1ower pot made is two inches in diameter
nd the largest sixteen. The potter forms
Ms clay into balls of convenient and suit
shls size. He dips his hands in water,
snd having placed the lump of clay upon

set upon q revolving shaft, which Is
worked by treadle. This is the only
'machinery used by potters, and, with the
exception Of some slight alterations in the
s1readle, it has remained the same for up
ward of 5000 years.
The flower pots are either sun dried or
dried in an oven moderately heated,
when they are ready for the kiln. Here
they are placed in nests and are allowed
20 remain from day and half to two
days. II very hard ones are wanted,
they remain longer in the kiln, and the
fire Is kept at white heat. Surprisingly
few are broken during the process Of
manufacture or in transportation.
Flower pots range in price from IS to
800 thousand, according to their size.
There is hardly a dwelling in the city that
does not contain one or more flower pots
Even the poorest tenement has few

are broken every year and replaced in
